Legal Definitions - adjourned meeting

An adjourned meeting is a type of meeting that has been temporarily suspended and will be resumed at a later time. It is a gathering of people who have a common interest and come together to discuss or act on matters related to that interest.

For example, a board of directors may hold an adjourned meeting to continue discussing important business matters that were not resolved in the previous meeting. Another example is a legislative body that adjourns a meeting to continue discussing a proposed bill at a later time.

Adjourned meetings are different from regular meetings because they are not held at a set time or date. Instead, they are scheduled to continue at a later time when more discussion or action is needed.
